Super God of War Chapter 76: The Dark Side of the Sun

With 243 Lizard's Eyes sponsored by Lost Camel, Lin Jie did not need to buy a certain item for the time being.

Many players with Lizard Eyes in their hands went away in anger. Several bad-tempered players also discussed killing Lost Camel several times. Such things were common in games.

In addition to some of the previous acquisitions, Lin Jie had about 600 lizard eyes. He believed it should be enough for the time being.

Sunshine City was named because of its never-setting Sun. Unlike the Tower of Light in the City of Light or the temples in Prague City, the symbol for Sunshine City was this Sun.

However, the Sun also had a dark side, which occasionally cast a large shadow when it was in a bad mood. Lin Jie's destination was in this shadow as it had a hidden dungeon - The Dark Side of the Sun, level 12 dungeon. Unlike normal dungeons, The Dark Side of the Sun only spawned one monster, called Son of Solar Flare, an Elite with normal ability. Killing it would not give any reward, so the players jokingly called it the most useless dungeon in The New Age.

Every entry of The Dark Side of the Sun required 30 Lizard's Eye.

It was not until three years later that the dungeon would become widely known. All of this would originate from an object called the EXP Gem. There were many kinds of gems in the mainland of The New Age, and EXP Gem was one of them. The man who had acquired the EXP Gem in Lin Jie's previous life was called "Messy Afterimages." He had been on the level leaderboard for several years, though his strength was mediocre until he had dropped the item after a certain death.

Messy Afterimages had announced the source of the item in rage and provided the strategies to obtain them in the forum. It had attracted players of the entire game to explore the gem crazily. An astronomical number of people had been clearing The Dark Side of the Sun for a month, but no one had gotten a second EXP Gem.

That was because only 5 EXP Gems existed in the entire game and one of them was in The Dark Side of the Sun. It was only natural for Lin Jie to want to obtain the item.

After leaving the Sunshine City, Lin Jie took a look at the sky. The shadow was cast on far in the Oasis.

This was the spawning ground for Salt Water Lizard. Most of the monsters were killed. Lin Jie stood in the shadow. 30 Lizard's Eyes were glowing in his backpack, with their pupils rolling around lifelessly.

——'Do you wish to enter dungeon The Dark Side of the Sun?'

"Yes!"

30 Lizard's Eyes were turned into powder, and magic arrays were outlined in the air.

A cluster of light appeared, revealing a gigantic black space. A balloon-like Son of Solar Flare was floating not far away.

According to the strategy spreading in Lin Jie's previous life, the Son of Solar Flare would keep summoning Light Element. Upon killing the Son of Solar Flare when there were more than 10 Light Elements would have a 0.01% chance of obtaining EXP Gem. That made 100 Light Elements 0.1%. That means for a 100% drop rate, 100,000 of Light Elements would be needed.

Furthermore, the Son of Solar Flare had a very slow summon time of only once every minute. Every summon was twice the current amount.

Lin Jie sat on the ground and took a few bites of fruit from his backpack. It had to be said that The New Age simulated the authenticity of food very well. It was a good choice for guests to join the game at dinner and pay a few copper coins to pack a table of delicious meat.

"Ah----Woo----Hah----"

The Son of Solar Flare began to move, and his round body seemed to be filled with balloons, which grew bigger and bigger. With a "pop" sound, an inconspicuous Light Element jumped out of its buttock - if it had buttocks - and the Son of Solar Flare recovered back to original state.

Lin Jie rolled his eyes. 'Could the production process be weirder? Could it be that elements were all produced by pooping?'

After one minute, the Son of Solar Flare began its second birth, and the first Light Element began to multiply, and the number grew to 4. After a rough calculation, it would not take much time for the number to reach 100,000.

Since he was bored, Lin Jie used Inspect to look at the attributes of Son of Solar Flare.

Son of Solar Flare: Level 12 Elite, Health Points: 100,000.

Light Element: Level 12 Element, Health Points: 30,000.

"What a tanker!"

Lin Jie took out his two swords and attacked the Son of Solar Flare. This Elite had 100,000 health points! During Lin Jie's attack, Light Elements surrounded him and smashed their fists into his ass.

-1!

-1!

The creatures on The Dark Side of the Sun were very weird. They had only 1 attack power. The only strong thing was their reproduction.

Facing the standing targets, Lin Jie began to study output techniques. For any profession, there was a combo! For example, a skill after right-clicking would also be considered as a combo, which could increase the damage by 1%. However, it was often neglected because of its small value.

For good players, the combo was a skill that must be mastered. For example, Bandit could set off continuous control skills, each successive combo increased control effect by 1%, and more than 5 successive combos were able to obtain 0.5 seconds additional control effect. For example, if a hunter could hit one part consecutively, the seventh hit could pierce through armor.

The benefits of combo could be extremely high or low, and the difficulties were different with each class.

The hardest class was Berserker! There was a triggering premise for the combo for Berserker: the health point must be less than 10%, which belonged to the state of endangerment of life. Generally, there would be explosive skills in a Berserker's sleeves. As long as the health points decreased, they would just spam their skills, so who cared about the combo?

Moreover, it was extremely difficult for Berserkers to combo. It required a condition of "Break," which was commonly known as bleeding. Berserkers could not learn bleeding skills, so how could they cause it? It required skill on players' part! When weapon cut into the other person's weak spot and produced damage twice the normal, it could cause bleeding.

Taking Lin Jie as an example, the basic damage was about 180, and the bleeding damage value was 9. The almost negligible damage drove more people to lose interest in combo. But when the number exceeded 3, the scary thing would come into play - each combo would produce a Blood Essence, and each Blood Essence would restore a small amount of their own life and temporarily improve their offensive power!

A Berserker with perfect combo skills could keep their health points below 10%. He could be hit but not killed, and he would get stronger and make the kill eventually.

In Lin Jie's previous life, he was named Battle Emperor and yet his combo had never been above 4. It was way too hard. In a battle, every second and every moment must be used to calculate where to stand next, skills, attacks, parry… There was absolutely no time for bothering with the angle and strength a sword was piercing through the enemy.

In his previous life, Lin Jie had avoided the skills on purpose. He believed that it was too hard for him. Now, could he still avoid it? Not possible! Since he was able to play again, he must be the best!

-162!

-125!

The Withered Leaf Sword and the Broken Blade pierced the body of Son of Solar Flare at the same time. Lin Jie's blade moved slightly and found the inner structure of the Son of Solar Flare like a marble. In the next attack, the Withered Leaf Sword went straight into the heart!

Clang-

It was difficult to control the sword, the damage was only more than 100, and the attack was over.

Lin Jie frowned and continued trying. The health bar of the Son of Solar Flare began to drop slowly. It was not possible to train a Berserker's combo in a day. There had been many players that had not made any progress in the two or three years of practicing on the combo.

The health bar of the Son of Solar Flare dropped sharply, and when the life value was less than 10,000, the production speed increased by two times. Lin Jie was shocked, and in the twinkling of an eye, the Light Elements had been densely spawned more than 300!

Due to space constraints, there was only half that could hit Lin Jie. The damage received per second was about 150.

Even though Lin Jie had a thick health bar, he could not withstand the attacks of so many monsters at the same time. Son of Solar Flare was continuously reproducing, and the popping sounds never seemed to stop.

When the health bar of Son of Solar Flare was below 5,000. There were more than 1,900 Light Elements.

The dense number of damage rose one after another, so Lin Jie made up his mind and gave up on the dungeon.

Whoosh!

Forced to abandon the dungeon, Lin Jie came out helplessly. The Dark Side of the Sun had a cooldown of an hour.

Lin Jie's strategy would not work. Son of Solar Flare was a typical snowball monster. If there were too many Light Elements, the splitting amount would be terrible. If the number survived was too small, the drop rate would not be guaranteed.

Lin Jie calculated the health point. With his own attributes, he could manage about 140. The drop rate was about 0.14%… If he got unlucky, he could take more than a few years and not getting it.

Suddenly, a name flashed through his mind - Bu Yi!

The little girl was an Ascetic Priest. Not only could she give armor, but she could also heal. If she learned Fire of the Holy Garment, she could boost max health points too…

At the same time, his inner voice sounded in his mind, "Why all the excuses? You just want to spend time together."

"Hello, are you there?" Lin Jie coughed and send in a message.

"Yeap. Anything wrong?" Bu Yi'a sweet voice soon sounded.

"I'm in a dungeon, but I can't clear it alone. Can you give me a hand?"

"But my level is very low, won't I be a burden?"

Lin Jie thought about it and said, "Nope."

"Sure, give me the coordinates."

In less than 10 minutes, a beautiful shadow appeared in the distance. She was running with her person-high staff. She smiled and said, "I'm here to help."

Lin Jie looked at the time and realized the dungeon was not yet refreshed. He awkwardly patted on the ground and said, "Take a seat first? The dungeon still has half an hour cooldown time."

Bu Yi blinked her eyes, a holy and sacred fire blossomed in the palm of her tender white hands. It hit a Salt Water Lizard on its head. She tilted her head and smiled, "Fu Sheng, you rest first. I'll be leveling for a while."

As a dominant male creature in the game, he was going to "rest" in a leveling ground. Lin Jie felt ashamed instantly and rushed up to help kill monsters. Lin Jie cut the Level 8 monsters like melons and vegetables, two hits one kill.

"You damage is so high… Any AOE?" Bu Yi asked.

Lin Jie nodded.

"I'll go pull. You wait here, do not run around, yeah?" Bu Yi held her staff and ran towards the oasis.

Lin Jie smiled bitterly. 'I'm Warrior, and you are Priest. You pull? You make me look so bad.'

But he knew very well Bu Yi's temper. Although she was an introvert, she had high pride. She knew that her output was not high, but she did not want to just stand there and get experience. Hence, she looked for something to do.

'What's taking her so long?'

Lin Jie just stood up when he heard a loud cry from the oasis.
